> From the bulletin: Dr. Gish (age 84) announces his retirement.(sort of).
> He has lectured or debated (300 debates; always the "clear victor!) in

> I first met Duane at an ICR week long seminar in 1988 in Dallas. We have

> Gish was once an ASA member; he opposed the ASA's drift toward theistic
> evolution and formed the Creation Research Society in 1963. The ICR was
> formed in 1972.

> John Morris has a laudatory article on Gish, who will receive the

> Pane4. Over 3,300 pastors and Christian leaders gathered at a conference
> in Sun Valley, CA where ICR presented the latest update on the RATE
> "research." Over 3,000 copies of THE GENESIS RECORD were distributed as
> complimentary gifts to the attendees. Henry Morris was there; John
> MacArthur gave him a warm public tribute. Morris was greeted by a
> standing ovation from a "packed house" when introduced.

> The upcoming RATE conference on November 5, 2005, was heavily promoted.
> RATE promotional DVDs are available for churches who want them.

> Page 5. Article on the laryngeal nerve. Why the "loop?" The corrupt

> Last page -- Article "Has Any Progress Been Made in Getting Creation in
